Shin-dong Station Internal Medicine Hyperlipidemia Treatment and Dietary TherapyHello, this is St. Mary’s Department of Veterinary Medicine.Among the three major chronic diseases in Korea are high blood pressure, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.Among them, “hyperlipidemia” is a typical disease in which middle-aged office workers receive a “caution” diagnosis when they receive a medical examination result.As hyperlipidemia is called a silent disease, there are no special symptoms, so it is difficult to judge by yourself just by self-diagnosis, so regular medical examinations are important.Today, I would like to take a look at the treatment of hyperlipidemia and diet therapy at the Shin-dong Station Internal Medicine Department. Hyperlipidemia?Hyperlipidemia is a metabolic syndrome in which there is more fat in the blood than is necessary.According to the Korea Society for Lipid and Arteriosclerosis, 4 out of 10 adults aged 20 or older have hyperlipidemia (hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hyperneutral lipidemia, etc.) as the cause of the outbreak is combined.This can also cause cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and arteriosclerosis, so appropriate diagnosis and treatment are urgently needed at Sindong Station Internal Medicine. symptoms of hyperlipidemiaIn the early stages of hyperlipidemia, there are no clear symptoms and it is easy to leave the disease unattended, but sometimes when the blood vessels become narrow due to hyperlipidemia, signals such as tingling the back of the heart or neck or swelling of the Achilles tendon appear.Therefore, hyperlipidemia is important to detect and receive treatment in the early stages, so it is important to diagnose and receive treatment in the early stages through regular checkups at #Shindong Station Internal Medicine and St. Mary’s Internal Medicine. diagnosis and treatment of hyperlipidemiaThe St. Mary’s Department of Medicine conducts a blood test to diagnose hyperlipidemia. If the total cholesterol in the blood is 200 mg/dL or higher, neutral fat is 150 mg/dL or higher, and LDL cholesterol is 130 mg/dL or higher, you will be diagnosed with hyperlipidemia.However, LDL cholesterol has different risk factors depending on whether you have high blood pressure, smoking, HDL level, and age, and the target value varies from person to person.If you are diagnosed with hyperlipidemia, the treatment will proceed with drug treatment, and you can expect satisfactory treatment results only if your lifestyle improves. management of hyperlipidemia and dietHyperlipidemia depends on how you usually manage it, so if you are overweight, you should maintain your normal weight range and proceed with regular exercise and diet.You should eat three meals a day regularly at a fixed time, and refrain from late-night snacks or overeating as much as possible.The core of diet therapy is to reduce consumption of saturated fatty acids and cholesterol, but to increase consumption of foods rich in water-soluble fiber.In addition, smokers with hyperlipidemia need to quit smoking as the risk of myocardial infarction increases by about four to six times, and aerobic exercise lowers LDL cholesterol and neutral fat levels and increases HDL cholesterol, which is good cholesterol, so you should exercise steadily.If you are suffering from underlying diseases such as old age, overweight, smokers, or high blood pressure, you should check your blood cholesterol level regularly.The internal medicine department of Sin-dong Station, St. Mary’s internal medicine, has a resident physician, and is striving for a more detailed diagnosis.Hyperlipidemia is highly likely to develop into complications if left unattended without initial symptoms, so if you are diagnosed with hyperlipidemia through blood tests or medical examinations, it is recommended to continue to manage it through consultation with your doctor.Thank you. 50m NAVER Corp.
